Appeals from the United States District Court

for the District of Nevada

Howard D. McKibben, District Judge, Presiding

Lloyd D. George, District Judge, Presiding

Before: CANBY, SILVERMAN, and PAEZ, Circuit Judges.

In these consolidated appeals, Luis Jimenez-Calvo appeals from the 30-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a deported alien found unlawfully in the United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326; and the consecutive 18-month sentence imposed upon revocation of supervised release. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Jimenez-Calvo contends that the aggregate sentence is substantively unreasonable because the district court failed to take proper account of his individual circumstances. He further argues that the sentences should not have been ordered to run consecutively because they are predicated on the same conduct. We disagree. The Guidelines contemplate that revocation sentences are to run consecutively to sentences for new offenses, see U.S.S.G. § 7B1.3(f), and the sentences are substantively reasonable in light of the totality of the circumstances and the sentencing factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. §§ 3553(a) and 3583(e), including Jimenez-Calvo's multiple prior deportations, his failure to be deterred, and the need for protection of the public. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51 (2007); United States v. Simtob, 485 F.3d 1058, 1063 (9th Cir. 2007) (when a defendant violates supervised release by committing same offense for which he was placed on supervised release, the breach of trust is more significant and "greater sanctions may be required to deter future criminal activity").

AFFIRMED.
